find position of a element in a matrix

2 views (last 30 days)
Hi Guys,
How do I find the last element in a increasing matrix that is less than a particular number. For example if my matrix is
A=[ 1 2 3 4 6 8 9]
And I want the last number that is less than 7. So I want to find the position of 6 and not any other number like 1,2,3,4.
Thanks, NS

find(A < 7,1,'last')

How about a certain element in the matrix? not necessarly the last one.
Would the same method applies for a 2D matrix?
